    I won’t cry for Cheney, who spent her life feeding the beast that’s eating her now, but this is a horrendous precedent and someone should stop it.

      There was an opportunity to do that a little over a month ago. But because Democrats didn’t put up the god-perfect candidate, voters opted for the dictator, then complained when he started acting like a dictator.

        No one asked for god-perfect, they asked for not shit and who cared about their concerns.

        Sadly the DNC decided they know what’s best for everyone and threw the election.

          Yup, obviously they should have realised that Drump was a fine candidate whose personal charm, decorum and honestly would overwhelm any other candidate.

          </S> obviously

    Time is crawling for me now. The impending destruction has made every minute stretch into a year. Its absolutely insane that investigators of an attempted coup that got one person killed and many injured, as well as shit all over our capital building, would be charged.

    Let conservatives fight conservatives.

    Liz Cheney cares as much about us as her dad cared about an entire generation of soldiers sent to war off a lie he told.

      This is bad because it’s an attempt to scare other conservatives to fall in line with the MAGA Nazi shit, and will probably work. It’s the same shit as the Nazi party in the Weimar Republic eating the conservatives who weren’t as right before assuming absolute power. Same playbook.

    This is unjust. But resources wasted on WY royalty will be diverted away from vulnerable people.
